Reminders!

While Church and Academy staff will be present, as well as team leaders and park staff to help guide your family’s service experience, your children are your responsibility. Please keep an eye on young ones serving and remember you determine which activity is appropriate for your child.

Photos are great and make sure to share your service experience with others but remember, your phone and personal items are your responsibility. Don’t let your need to share on social media distract you from doing some great (and needed) work!

Remember these are worksites. You are expected to work and physical activity may be strenuous. With that said, please do not overextend yourself and please tell a staff member or team leader if you are feeling any physical danger.

Parking is limited! Please carpool and share rides if appropriate and possible.
